QT qScriptConnect is not working

QScriptEngine eng;
QScriptEngineDebugger debugger;
debugger.attachTo(&eng);
QScriptValue consoleObj =  eng.newQObject(this);
eng.globalObject().setProperty("asd", consoleObj);
QScriptValue handler= eng.evaluate("(function(text) { asd.log('text was changed to '+text); })");
QLineEdit *edit = new QLineEdit(this);
qScriptConnect(edit, SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)), QScriptValue(), handler);
edit->show();

qScriptConnect(edit, SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)), QScriptValue(), handler) is not working, but when i am using handler.call(QScriptValue(),args) it works well;

QScriptValueList args;
args << 3;
handler.call(QScriptValue(),args);

A variable created in a method that is not created in the heap is deleted when it finishes executing the method, in your case the QScriptEngine is created in the constructor reason why it is eliminated, and all the script depends on it. The solution is simple, make the QScriptEngine member of the class:

mainwindow.h

#ifndef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H

#include <QMainWindow>
#include <QScriptEngine>

namespace Ui {
class MainWindow;
}

class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    explicit MainWindow(QWidget *parent = 0);
    ~MainWindow();

    Q_INVOKABLE void log(const QString & text);

private:
    Ui::MainWindow *ui;
    QScriptEngine eng; // member
};

#endif // MAINWINDOW_H

mainwindow.cpp

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"

#include <QLineEdit>
#include <QScriptEngine>
#include <QScriptEngineDebugger>

#include <QDebug>

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);

    QScriptEngineDebugger debugger;
    debugger.attachTo(&eng);
    QScriptValue consoleObj =  eng.newQObject(this);
    eng.globalObject().setProperty("asd", consoleObj);
    QScriptValue handler= eng.evaluate("(function(text) { asd.log('text was changed to '+text); })");
    QLineEdit *edit = new QLineEdit(this);
    qScriptConnect(edit, SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)), QScriptValue(), handler);
    edit->show();
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}

void MainWindow::log(const QString &text)
{
    qDebug()<< text;
}
